How does the economy stand today and what will I do to fix it if I was PresidentPaper details:
1. Go to the Bureau of Economic Analysis page, and you will see reports on how the economy is performing based on economic indicators: http:\/\/www.bea.gov\/newsreleases\/glance.htm.
2. You can also go to the Bureau of Labor and Statistics (www.bls.gov) to get information on current economic conditions. There is alot of information on Productivity, Unemployment, Inflation, The National Debt, and our Balance of Trade. Now, I don\u2019t expect you to understand all of it, but I do expect you to have some indication of where the economy stands today.<\/p>\n
You need to mention GDP (productivity), Jobs (unemployment), Fiscal Spending (the budget) and the national debt in your plan. Please use the information in the websites listed above in your research and site your sources accordingly. I want to see some quantitative analysis (meaning I want you to analyze numbers) in your commentary.<\/p>\n
I am looking for 3-4 pages summarizing the state of the US Economy based on your research. Additionally, I want you to write 3-4 pages on what you would do to get the economy back on track? I would limit your 1or 2 ideas to reforming<\/p>\n
(tax reform, health care, education, ifrastructure, energy, the budget process, job creation, our national deficit, trade policy\u2026) \u2013 if you try to mention too many things it will be difficult. Please get articles and data that back up your ideas.<\/p>\n
Feel free to be creative with your ideas, but your plan must be realistic.<\/p>\n
